319.09.2025EthanBloodborne5.0Great guy, horrible wrestler. His best stuff was as part of The Natural Disasters, only because John Tenta's style complimented his.

710.04.2025Conquistador373.0EDIT/Rewrite. As Big Bubba he was awkward and green as heck, what a look. As Big Steele Man he was slightly better. Tugboat is just AWFUL, horrible stuff. Can't stomach the Tugboat, only had good stuff with Pez Whatley. Typhoon though. Here is where he got to shine. Although he still wasn't that great. The Shockmaster debut is infamous. His time in WCW is just awkward. Only The Natural Disasters is worth your time. 3.25

1302.01.2025Isyys5.0I feel so bad for Fred Ottman. Never given a good character, the best character he had was Typhoon, and even then he was playing second fiddle (To an admittedly better worker in Earthquake). But it's hard not to feel he got the short end of the stick. Great guy, slightly underrated work. Any semblance of a push he was gonna get got ripped away from him because of a single trip over a poorly gimmicked wall as The Shockmaster.

1504.09.2024FrenchLad5.0Fred is one of the nicest wrestler outside the ring and still continues to be down to earth nowadays, even appearing in a photo posing with the infamous shockmaster helmet. Unfortunately his gimmicks, like the shockmaster, were sub par at best with typhoon, horrid at worst with tugboat

2323.02.2024Junior Ruthless I can write a one word review: EPIC. Typhoon is solid big guy but the shockmaster was EPIC! It's like the definiton of so bad it's good.
2422.01.2024benny5bellys4.0Six year old me loved Tugboat and seven year old me was too stupid to realise Typhoon was not the same person. Poor lad is almost certainly going to be most noted for falling on his arse for the rest of time. I did like the Natural Disasters and still grumpy LOD refused to drop the belts to them.

2608.11.2023ShinigamiDragon Alleine das er für das beste Wrestlingdebüt allerzeiten gesorgt hat verdient er eine 10! Mir egal was andere sagen, für mich hat der Shockmaster selbst nach 30 Jahren mich immer noch mit diesem debüt geschockt. Diese besprühte Star wars Maske, das billige Outfit und diese sehr ernstzunehmende stimme bleibt legendär!

3510.04.2023Giantfan19805.0A solid big man who was ruined by dumb gimmicks. Tugboat went nowhere, but as Typhoon he complimented Earthquake very well in their tag team and they were the only legitimate threat to the LOD, but the Road Warriors were stubborn about dropping the belts so the Disasters never got one over on them. After he left for WCW, it was all downhill from there. Met him years ago at a collectors show and he is one of the nicest guys.

3913.12.2022WhatIsLooveee5.0Fred is best known for being an good tag team player and for having the infamous Shockmaster gimmick. He was fun as Hulk Hogan's buddy the Tugboat, but Shockmaster became a real phenomenon, one of the most popular memes in the industry, which is still remembered. He wasn't very agile in the ring, but he was quite an impressive big guy, especially as a 1/2 of Natural Disasters. 5 points.

5027.04.2021BritishSteel5.0Als Teil des Tag Teams "Natural Desasters" war er zusammen mit Earthquake schon ziemlich beeindruckend. Wrestlingkenntnisse nur rudimentär vorhanden, aber seiner Rolle als klassischer Big Man wurde er auf jeden Fall gerecht. Absolut legendär und unsterblich haben ihn allerdings seine Auftritte als "Shockmaster" gemacht: Zum Niederknien lustig. Spaß hat er auf jeden Fall gemacht, der gute Mr. Ottman - deshalb 5 Punkte.

5425.01.2021Brett19801.0No skill at all. Really boring to watch. Tugboat had the stupidest music ever, Shockmaster was one of the most memorable debuts of all time for all the wrong reasons.

5721.09.2020Unright3.0He was from a time where if you were a big man, then you got a big man push. But if he never had his size, he would have been a nobody. He looked great against smaller opponents, but really never pushed himself to put on any kind of memorable matches. Plus he got saddled with really bad gimmicks his whole career.

5912.06.2020Khalid Ace2.0A very bad worker with some stupid gimmicks "Typhoon" was good though but overall he wasn't good at all.
6001.05.2020qbort6.0While not nearly as good as his buddy Earthquake, Typhoon was still fun to watch. I miss the days of big fat guys squashing little guys in wrestling. Shockmaster was funny, too...
6112.02.2020OyunDelta8.0I don't understand why people rated him low. Okey, maybe he was limited in the ring and he couldn't perform tramendous mouvements but he tried to do his best and he had great agility as a big man. Also his gimmicks (especially Tugboat and Typhoon and even Shockmaster :D ) are good, his promos are nice and watchable. Of course these are my opinions and I believe this legend deserve good rating and respect.

6802.12.2018JEK 19912.0Not really that great! He has the size and splashes but limited in the ring. His gimmicks Tugboat and Shockmaster were dreadful. Typhoon wasn't that bad. He did well with Earthquake but that's it. Not that memorable of a wrestler.

7025.05.2018Matunus7.0Fred Ottman war mit Sicherheit kein schlechter Wrestler. Er war stark, für seine Masse sehr beweglich und verfügte sogar über ein gewisses Maß an Charisma. Am besten waren meiner Meinung nach seine Tag Team-Auftritte mit Earthquake. Leider wurde seine Karriere durch eine Reihe schlechter Gimmicks zunichte gemacht. Tugboat war schon schlimm genug, sodass Typhoon mit Sicherheit ein Wandel zum besseren war. Und dann kam leider die Sache mit dem Shockmaster.
7122.03.2018pappahouse2.0Einfach nur schlecht, null Charme, null Repertoire. Der Fail als Shockmaster passt einfach zu ihm und spiegelt seine Karriere wieder. Er bekommt zwei Punkte, da er neben Earthquake bei den Natural Disasters sehr imposant war.

7407.12.2016mdbnase2.0Grottiger Wrestler, grottiges Micwork, ganz schlimme Gimmicks. Als Heel an der Seite von Earthquake leider auch unglaubwürdig, weil er viel zu nett wirkt, aber immer noch besser als der nervige Seemann. Hat mit seinem Auftritt als Shockmaster aber Geschichte geschrieben. Weil er ein sympathischer Kerl ist, gibt's ausnahmsweise doch 2 Pünktchen.

7628.09.2016Squared Circle7.0A good power villain and part of an excellent tag team that had a quality run against the Road Warriors. He moved well. Tugboat was a bad gimmick but it got him in the door. Good heel turn match with the Bushwackers. The Shockmaster incident costs him a point.

8101.07.2016TheGoat2.0Fred Ottman seems like a really nice guy, but as a worker he was awful. The silly gimmicks (Tugboat, Shockmaster) didnt help him. Even as massive as he was, he never even came off as intimidating, but more like the big goofy uncle who cracks fatulance jokes .
8223.05.2016Wrestlinglexikon5.0Ähnlich wie sein Partner stark limitiert in allen Belangen. Trotzdem hat er zumindestens bei den Disasters funktioniert. Und ich sehe ihn auch wrestlerich auf dem selben Niveau wie Earthquake-etwas explosiver und schneller halt. Am mic auch nicht so unverständlich wie sein Partner. Über die ganzen Gimmickkatastrophen wie Tugboat oder den großartigen Shockmaster hüllen wir mal den Mantel des Schweigens. Im Singlesbereich war er zwar im Ring soweit ok aber ohne Quake fehlte da was-den im Gegensatz zu dem konnte Typhoon keine Begeisterungsstürme auslösen, wenn er als Solist antrat. Wie für seinen Partner auch-solide 5 Punkte. :)

8408.05.2016Zed4.0Ottman ist ja ein netter Kerl, jedoch war er als Wrestler keine Offenbarung. An der Seite von Earthquake zu gebrauchen, als Tugobaot jedoch nicht. Ganz zu schweigen vom Infamous Shockmaster mit seinem Sturmtruppler Helm. Im großen und ganzen kaum in Erinnerung geblieben, jedoch sah ich die Natural Desasters immer gerne.
8503.05.2016EGeraldhuebner Tugboat bzw. Typhoon - alias Fred Ottman, "he fell flat on his arse, he fell flat on his fucking arse" ... ^^ Sein (ohne eigenes verschulden, es lag am Helm) total verpatzter Auftritt als WCW Shockmaster hat wohl eindeutig Wrestlinggeschichte geschrieben. ^^ Man kann sich die genialen Szenen noch 100 x ansehen und lacht trotzdem immer wieder darüber. Hier bewundere ich alle Kollegen, das sie dabei so ruhig geblieben sind. Tja, der gute Fred hatte es schon nicht einfach, auch nicht in der WWF. Zuerst verpasst man ihm ein komplett bescheuertes Matrosen Gimmick (Popeye, der Seeman läßt grüßen), kleidet ihn sehr unvorteilhaft und dann zwingt man ihn noch dazu, alle paar Minuten solche Signalhorn Geräusche von sich zu geben. Als Typhoon viel besser, besonders natürlich zusammen mit John Tenta mit Natural Disasters. Wirklich talentiert war Fred Ottman allerdings nie, selbst wenn, dann durfte er es leider nur sehr wenig zeigen. Egal, ein hart arbeitender Worker war er allemal gewesen.
8629.04.2016twilighthotel6.0Regularly benefitted from getting the rub from bigger stars who he was associated with such as Dusty Rhodes (a relative), Hulk Hogan (a friend), John Tenta/Earthquake (tag partner) and Sting (initially connect to the Shockmaster). Never found a niche as a singles competitor, particularly after leaving Earthquake's side. However, he was a big, heavy guy who was fed to a lot of up-and-coming competitors who benefitted from pinning a former tag team champion and veteran name. Lost matches by pinfall to Undertaker, Doink, Bam Bam Bigelow, Shawn Michaels, The Headshrinkers (as a tag wrestler) and Yokozuna, among others. Squashed preliminary wrestlers who were lower than him on the ladder every now and again. Also held the WWF Tag Titles with Earthquake. Adequate, if nothing special.

9112.07.2015DanTalksRasslin5.0While he was OK as a monster babyface as Tugboat, Typhoon truly shined as a monster tag team wrestler alongside Earthquake as the Natural Disasters. The team worked well as heels or babyfaces and meshed well in the ring. Unlike his partner, Typhoon was never quite able to find the same degree of success as a single, though admittedly the "Shockmaster incident" is one of my all-time favorite WrestleCrap moments.

9404.05.2014WrestleArts3.0He fell flat on his arse... he fell flat on his fucking arse! Für seine Statur sicher akzeptabel im Ring, schaffte mit verschiedenen Gimmicks aufgrund fehlender Ausstrahlung und Micskills jedoch nie den Durchbruch, nicht mal durch eine Pappwand. Wenigstens kann er von sich behaupten, mit dem witzigsten Botch aller Zeiten Sting, Flair, den Bulldog, Sid und Harlem Heat die Show gestohlen zu haben.

9622.01.2014Lord Steven Regal6.0Recht solider Bigman, meiner Meinung nach. Bei den Natural Disasters recht "erleidbar" (Im Vergleich zu sonstigen Rotz während der Zeit). Das Shockmaster Debüt scheint vielen Menschen aber noch im Kopf zu hängen. Es war dennoch einer DER spektakulärsten Wrestlingmomente aller Zeiten
